>> Sites already have to offer exports to be GDPR compliant
> Not necessarily. There are limitations in Article 20 of the GDPR.
I'm AOK with restricting user-rights to save-the-things-that-are-about-to-be-deleted to sites that meet a GDPR style minimum bar for engagement. Minor minor minor sidebar, I think sites should have to have advertised machine-to-machine accessible metadata on what their site's terms of service are.
It's dead now, not a good implementation, & probably not a good fit in the particulars, but the vague wide-scale idea of P3P (Platform for Privacy Preferences, a terrible name for a spec exposing what was more usually data-rights to the content than privacy concerns) kind of has some illumination for what a future path here might look like. It should be known. We should entail ourselves knowingly. This is one place GDPR doesn't really seem to address, that it misses the mark: I believe fully in small scale operators, in letting them do their thing, but as a user we should know what compacts we're entering into. Without having to read elaborate/complex human-authored terms: the machines should be able to tell us what minimum bars are met.
